I didn't know eating chipmunk meat had that effect. Ocelot II Oct 2022 #1

It may have been that the chipmunk carcass had spent a few days rotting. FoxNewsSucks Oct 2022 #3

That's probably what happened. Cats won't eat rotten meat but dogs will eat Ocelot II Oct 2022 #4

We used to have a cat who ate chipmunk heads and left the bodies on the front steps, and she never seemed to get digestive problems. Maybe the heads aren't a problem by themselves, or maybe chipmunk meat isn't as bad for cats as for dogs. Or maybe it was because the chipmunk heads were fresh, the cat having done her own hunting. I assume Boog's chipmunk was found and not caught?
